What is the penalty for carrying a firearm without a permit in Hawaii?

A fine of up to $1,000
Up to 1 year in jail
Both a fine and jail time
There is no penalty

The correct answer is: Both a fine and jail time

Carrying a firearm without a permit is a serious offense in Hawaii, so the penalty is not just one or the other, but rather both a fine and jail time. Option A is incorrect because it does not address potential jail time, and option B is incorrect because it does not mention the potential for a fine. Option D is incorrect because despite Hawaii having strict gun control laws, it still requires a permit to carry a firearm. Therefore, carrying a firearm without a permit will result in both a fine and jail time.
